Harbor Slam Poetry - A Surrealist Coastal Collection
There’s a certain kind of host who doesn’t simply entertain - she orchestrates. Every detail is intentional, every moment a reveal. Harbor Slam Poetry was created for her.
This collection reimagines the coastal narrative through a more theatrical lens - where the expected gives way to the expressive, and tradition is playfully rewritten. It’s coastal, but heightened. Familiar, yet delightfully off-script.
At its center, a striking hero scene unfolds: a blue crab and lobster locked in a dramatic duel, their utensils-turned-swords mid-performance. It’s a moment suspended between humor and elegance; rich in detail, texture, and storytelling. Surrounding elements, pearl-like seaweed and vibrant organic forms, frame the composition with a sense of movement and indulgence.
Throughout the collection, that same spirit carries forward. Unexpected compositions - a trio of headless fish stacked in quiet defiance of logic, passionfruit rendered in jewel-toned mauves, a trident entwined with fluid sea botanicals - create a rhythm that feels both curated and spontaneous.
The palette is unabashedly expressive: sunburst orange, pink lemonade, jewel-toned mauve, and layered coastal blues - from Caribbean teal to peacock and softened seafoam. It’s designed to energize a table while maintaining a refined visual balance.
Supporting patterns ground the collection while extending its personality; ornate compass repeats, bold chevrons, coastal stripes, and conversational ocean motifs. Each one offers versatility without losing the collection’s distinctive voice.
Harbor Slam Poetry is designed for statement-making tablescapes, conversation-starting serveware, and hosts who understand that memorable entertaining lives in the unexpected.
It doesn’t murmur coastal; it performs it.

Never Lose Your Muchness is a narrative capsule rooted in that rare, in-between space - where imagination softens the edges of reality and the nonsensical begins to feel quietly, beautifully true.
At the heart of the collection, a young reader and her companion slip effortlessly into the story before them. Pages seem to breathe, and from them, a world unfolds; florals drifting, creatures hovering, and wonder taking shape in gentle, unexpected ways. It is not a departure from reality, but an expansion of it.
Supporting pieces echo this sentiment, where even the smallest details carry a sense of curiosity and charm. A goldfish suspended among blooming florals, slightly out of place yet perfectly at home, reflects the collection’s core idea: that beauty often lives in the unexpected, and that whimsy, when held with intention, becomes elegance.
Handcrafted in watercolor and colored pencil, this collection is a quiet celebration of curiosity, storytelling, and the enduring value of seeing the world through a lens of wonder.
Because muchness was never meant to be outgrown.

Every collection/project starts exactly the same way with a system, every time. I have set parameters that involve key types of brainstorming for the planning stage.
The planning stage results in the curation of a themed mood board from which the palette(s), font style, collection name and direction with composed roughs to move onto the next phase.
People to say that creation does not happen in a straight line. I disagree slightly. A system of processes set in place and strategic disciplines guarantee results, every single time. Feeding the creative bank is a necessary discipline in my world. What is also unique is the depth of my design perspective for every piece - the why that was not yet considered by most.
All of the designs are curated from my handcrafted art, using an array of mediums. Most pieces are mixed media—my combo of choice is watercolor and colored pencil, often including pen & ink.

Your investment includes a key feature in the bespoke messaging campaigns I curate. I articulate how the collections can be used with full scope explanation of my creative direction for every collection: who they are for, and what emotional and/or niche it fills. Marketing language with no filters. Why do I do this? Because these are all questions I answered before I picked up the pencil or paintbrush to make the first stroke.
